I remember why I don’t take all 3 of my kids with #Autism shopping at once

I’m completely exhausted after a long day. I took the boys to therapy, to order Gavin’s new glasses, and then to the grocery store. While at the store, I was quickly reminded why I avoid taking all three of them shopping at the same time.

Don’t get me wrong, they weren’t terrible, and frankly, after the long day they did well.

It was more exhausting than frustrating for me because I had to constantly keep them focused. They were all over the place and wrangling them wasn’t easy. Gavin was simply oblivious to his surroundings and kept walking into people and things.

Elliott and Emmett were pushing each other’s buttons, and it quickly escalated.

My back is killing me, I ended up spending to much at the grocery store, and I just want to run away screaming.

Unfortunately, our day begins bright and early tomorrow. Elliott and Emmett both have doctors appointments at 8am. I’ll explain that later on.
